MVP vs other: Mitral Valve Prolapse is the most common cause of sharp chest pains in a teenage girl (that and a broken heart) I'd get a 12 lead EKG and an echo-cardiogram. Sometimes the doctor can hear the valve making a clicking noise through the stethoscope ( especially if he has you lay on your side and breath out ). I noticed you use an inhaler. Sometimes asthma can cause chest pains for various reasons.
